The MEK/ERK signalling cascade is required for sonic hedgehog signalling pathway-mediated enhancement of proliferation and inhibition of apoptosis in normal keratinocytes.

abstract：:Ultraviolet radiation (UVR) is known to be involved in the initiation and progression of malignant melanoma. Many studies have focused on the initiation of melanoma, but less is known about the effect of UVR on established tumor cells. Here, we show that after ultraviolet-B (UVB) irradiation, melanoma cells (MM) are a...
